Description

Mildred Moore, a Pamunkey potter, is well known for her blackware and for pictograph bowls and plates such as the one shown here. The pictographs tell a story that can be interpreted with an accompanying key.

Mildred has demonstrated her pottery making techniques at many venues including the Smithsonian's National Folklife Festival and the National Folk Festival in Richmond, VA.
